I wish when the genie dissappears, instead of the genie coming back after 1000 years, he will never come back!


did I just succesfully neutralize the genie?
perhaps, lets see what the community says!


Lets see. Nothing happens. for your wish to come true, the genie first has to grant a wish and trigger yours ("when the genie disappears). He grants your wish, but realizes the condition, hence genie retires to a beach in the Caribbean with a harem of Latinas and bottomless margaritas and other drinks. He refuses to grant wishes anymore. He lives forever like this.

I'm cool with that.

What If I were to wish for something evil? For example I wish to become a dark hearted warlord with a host of slavering demons with whom I could tear scourge and darkness through the heart of the world, storm across all lands delivering death, famine, and destruction, knowing no rest until all the world ached under my my heels. We would be an unstoppable force of darkness. Whats the genie gonna do to screw me? I mean, Id be pretty screwed to wish for this but it might confuse him long enough ... besides, I like Diablo 2....
Id like to hear Liquids opinions on wishing for something evil to see if you can mess with the genies ability to warp the intent of your wish. What if you wished the genie dead, or simply powerless, not free mind you, just without any powers, trapped like he was, but completely impotent?
Genies... ha!

that depends on just how persuasive the genie plans on being
i wish for extra wealth but for my wish to have no aspect that i would consider negative
this would of course be reworded to ask for a specified large amount of wealth, but also be more of a one wish not two sentence
its all in how many clauses you can make to fend it off

he makes the demons kill you before you can see the rest of it come true

evils fine cause you can still think of things to stop it

depends on how the genie dies or loses its powers, a big explosion doing the work for instance...

200 billion euros, what is the worst it can happen? Bankrupt banks, military corporations and apple!? I'd take it any day over bankrupt multibillion companies.

200 billion euros or counterfeit money. Police come knocking on your door immediately. 200 years in the can.

Granted. Now, since the genie used fraud to get you everything but also used your signature and stuff to get you accused of it, you now are in prison after having 200 billion euros for a couple seconds.
Also, ruining the whole market has caused an irreparable krach that left your family starving. Oops!
Just do it.

Dunno which country you're in, but in Sweden you can't spend more than 10.000 SEK or so without having to show where it came from to avoid tax fraud.

I think the only wish that works is to wish to be the one and only omnipontent God. Science cannot kill me, because i'm immortal. The usual screw ups don't work, like killing me (cannot kill the one and only god), or destroying the universe (i can recreate it! no i won't be destroyed with the universe, i trascend it). How do you screw this one up ? Considering i can, as god, immediatly destroy the genie as well. I would also destroy humanity, it was a mistake anyway. I cannot be retarded, i am god and know everything, reason perfectly and exist forever.

wish granted, the government suspects you are a spy and terrorist because you should not conceivably be able to get that much money, plus, the money is untraceable, it is decided (for some reason concerning espionage) that you must be put to death and your only chance of survival is to flee the country, the government pockets the 200 billion euros after you either flee or die.

I wish for the genie to immediately and permanently become my slave for all of time. I could than command him to do whatever my bidding is, and I could forbid him from using his power to subvert my will.

Granted, but unfortunately religion was a lie and the genie is forced to turn you into the next best thing - a painting by the name of "the one and only omnipotent God".

Granted, after fulfilling your wish he dissapears for 1000 years only to find you dead when he returns.

Can people finally stop trying to beat the genie at his own game now?

I wish I was having Chinese food for diner today!

Granted, but you go into a vegetative state and can't communicate with your genie (or anyone) through any direct or indirect means. Have fun.

I wish I was having Chinese food for diner today

Granted, but it taste terrible and worse it is poisoned and you die painfully over the next few minutes.
